Snowboarding in Minnesota isn’t the first thing that runs through a persons mind when they hear Minneapolis, or Minnesota. In fact most of the time they’ll hear that annoying accent we all tend to have. I’m born and raised in Minneapolis,...
Loveland Ski area is located 53 miles west of Denver, and is one of my favorite resorts to shred. It was the 4th mountain I’ve ever snowboarded on and it was an epic powder day. When you visit loveland, there’s a...
One of my favorite places to shred has to be Vail. I’ve personally waited on writing this review so I could think compile my thoughts about it. I really wanted to give it justice, in light of that, I’ll probably keep...
Welch Village Ski Resort is a ski resort that I’m very fond of. When I was in college, I had a season pass to two different resorts. Every weekend I’d decide where I would shred, and it was a hard decision....
Shredding at Keystone was my first Colorado mountain experience. I’d only been snowboarding in the mountains once prior to this, and I was a rookie, so it doesn’t count. I remember looking around and seeing an epic bluebird day. It was...
A few years ago, some friends and I did a road trip to Colorado. I’d been there to shred once or twice but had never ridden Beaver Creek. I’d spent most of my time at Vail, and saw no reason to...
I’ve been snowboarding for the better part of a decade, and during my first year, I heard about Trollhaugen. Anyone that snowboards or skis in the Twin Cities has heard about this ski resort, and I’m pretty confident a good chunk...

I’ve spent a lot of time snowboarding and not enough time at Giants Ridge. Last season I was given the opportunity to meet up with a buddy of mine to go out and shred the resort. It turned out to be...
I’m a bit biased because I live in Minneapolis and I’ve been a season pass holder at Afton Alps for over a decade. I’ve ridden every resort within 50 miles and it’s my favorite place to shred in the Twin Cities....
A lot can be said about finding epic ski resorts with good powder and short lines. it varies by the year, and short lines one day could be long lines another. Instead I like to focus on the terrain, and epic...
Over the last decade I’ve done a lot of snowboarding. I’ve traveled to a lot of resorts, and I have fond memories of most of them. I’m going to share a lot of Snowboard Tips I’ve learned along the way. So...
A couple of times a year, I’ll grab my snowboard and head to a Mountain in Colorado. I always go to Vail for an annual pilgrimage. Once or twice a year I pack my gear and leave Minneapolis to go and...
